Oh been walkin' down a lonely road

They say things get better

But you know they never do

And if you'd let me tell ya

How I really feel

Maybe you could see

The things you do are real

You seem to think you're all that matters

And lately I've had nothing much to feel

The days get longer every sunrise

And the nights get harder to pass

I can't sleep but when I do

I dream the worst dreams

Can't you save me mama?

tell me tell me

When the storm will pass

Tell me tell me

Why it goes so fast

Tell me tell me

The rest of how it is

You gave me no warning

I don't deserve this.

Oh you think I'm not stressed

You think you have it worse

And all your dreams are crushed?

Well let me tell you mama

I'm sleeping with a gun

I live in fear of your tongue

You were my number one

The reason I lived

It's all a lie in the end

All the cut throat things you said

All your promises are dead

So tell me tell me

When the storm will pass

Tell me tell me

why it goes so fast

Tell me tell me

The rest of how it is

You gave me no warning

I don't deserve this

I live in fear of what I'll see next

I live in hope that it'll work out

All the times you snapped

You make me wanna cry

You used to make me try

Tell me tell me

When the storm will pass

Tell me tell me

Why it goes so fast

Tell me tell me

How the rest of it is

You gave me no warning

I don't deserve this

Tell me

Do you love me anymore

Tell me

Do you feel a twinge

When I cry out

Tell me please

That you still care

Cause my tears will fall

And mama, you scoff

....

Tell me tell me

Why does it hurt so much

Tell me tell me

Why nothing matters to you

Tell me tell me

Do you still care

When you say you love me

Is love still even there?
